Barma de Merlot showcases Ô Fâya Farm’s ability to give a fresh, alpine twist to a classic grape. Grown in the unique mountain soils of Valais and crafted with a gentle, low-intervention philosophy, this Merlot is vibrant, structured and full of natural charm.

Tasting Notes

A pure, expressive Merlot offering ripe plum, dark cherry and soft blackberry, accented by subtle spice, herbs and a hint of alpine freshness. The palate is supple yet lively, with juicy fruit, fine tannins and a clean, mineral finish. Spontaneous fermentation, no filtration, and minimal sulphur allow the grape’s true character to shine.
